< Kejadian 39 >

1 Adapun Yusuf telah dibawa ke Mesir; dan Potifar, seorang Mesir, pegawai istana Firaun, kepala pengawal raja, membeli dia dari tangan orang Ismael yang telah membawa dia ke situ.
And Joseph was brought down to Egypt. And Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh's, the captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him from the hand of the Ishmaelites, who had brought him down there.
2 Tetapi TUHAN menyertai Yusuf, sehingga ia menjadi seorang yang selalu berhasil dalam pekerjaannya; maka tinggallah ia di rumah tuannya, orang Mesir itu.
And Jehovah was with Joseph. And he was a man who succeeds. And he was in the house of his master the Egyptian.
3 Setelah dilihat oleh tuannya, bahwa Yusuf disertai TUHAN dan bahwa TUHAN membuat berhasil segala sesuatu yang dikerjakannya,
And his master saw that Jehovah was with him, and that Jehovah made all that he did to prosper in his hand.
4 maka Yusuf mendapat kasih tuannya, dan ia boleh melayani dia; kepada Yusuf diberikannya kuasa atas rumahnya dan segala miliknya diserahkannya pada kekuasaan Yusuf.
And Joseph found favor in his sight, and he ministered to him. And he made him overseer over his house, and all that he had he put into his hand.
5 Sejak ia memberikan kuasa dalam rumahnya dan atas segala miliknya kepada Yusuf, TUHAN memberkati rumah orang Mesir itu karena Yusuf, sehingga berkat TUHAN ada atas segala miliknya, baik yang di rumah maupun yang di ladang.
And it came to pass from the time that he made him overseer in his house, and over all that he had, that Jehovah blessed the Egyptian's house for Joseph's sake. And the blessing of Jehovah was upon all that he had, in the house and in the field.
6 Segala miliknya diserahkannya pada kekuasaan Yusuf, dan dengan bantuan Yusuf ia tidak usah lagi mengatur apa-apapun selain dari makanannya sendiri. Adapun Yusuf itu manis sikapnya dan elok parasnya.
And he left all that he had in Joseph's hand, and he knew nothing that was with him, save the bread which he ate. And Joseph was comely, and well-favored.
7 Selang beberapa waktu isteri tuannya memandang Yusuf dengan berahi, lalu katanya: "Marilah tidur dengan aku."
And it came to pass, after these things, that his master's wife cast her eyes upon Joseph, and she said, Lie with me.
8 Tetapi Yusuf menolak dan berkata kepada isteri tuannya itu: "Dengan bantuanku tuanku itu tidak lagi mengatur apa yang ada di rumah ini dan ia telah menyerahkan segala miliknya pada kekuasaanku,
But he refused, and said to his master's wife, Behold, my master does not know what is with me in the house, and he has put all that he has into my hand.
9 bahkan di rumah ini ia tidak lebih besar kuasanya dari padaku, dan tiada yang tidak diserahkannya kepadaku selain dari pada engkau, sebab engkau isterinya. Bagaimanakah mungkin aku melakukan kejahatan yang besar ini dan berbuat dosa terhadap Allah?"
He is not greater in this house than I, nor has he kept back anything from me but thee, because thou are his wife. How then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?
10 Walaupun dari hari ke hari perempuan itu membujuk Yusuf, Yusuf tidak mendengarkan bujukannya itu untuk tidur di sisinya dan bersetubuh dengan dia.
And it came to pass, as she spoke to Joseph day by day, that he did not hearken to her, to lie by her, or to be with her.
11 Pada suatu hari masuklah Yusuf ke dalam rumah untuk melakukan pekerjaannya, sedang dari seisi rumah itu seorangpun tidak ada di rumah.
And it came to pass, about this time, that he went into the house to do his work, and there was none of the men of the house there inside.
12 Lalu perempuan itu memegang baju Yusuf sambil berkata: "Marilah tidur dengan aku." Tetapi Yusuf meninggalkan bajunya di tangan perempuan itu dan lari ke luar.
And she caught him by his garment, saying, Lie with me. And he left his garment in her hand, and fled, and got out.
13 Ketika dilihat perempuan itu, bahwa Yusuf meninggalkan bajunya dalam tangannya dan telah lari ke luar,
And it came to pass, when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand, and was fled forth,
14 dipanggilnyalah seisi rumah itu, lalu katanya kepada mereka: "Lihat, dibawanya ke mari seorang Ibrani, supaya orang ini dapat mempermainkan kita. Orang ini mendekati aku untuk tidur dengan aku, tetapi aku berteriak-teriak dengan suara keras.
that she called to the men of her house, and spoke to them, saying, See, he has brought in a Hebrew to us to mock us. He came in to me to lie with me, and I cried with a loud voice.
15 Dan ketika didengarnya bahwa aku berteriak sekeras-kerasnya, ditinggalkannyalah bajunya padaku, lalu ia lari ke luar."
And it came to pass, when he heard that I lifted up my voice and cried, that he left his garment by me, and fled, and got out.
16 Juga ditaruhnya baju Yusuf itu di sisinya, sampai tuan rumah pulang.
And she laid up his garment by her until his master came home.
17 Perkataan itu jugalah yang diceritakan perempuan itu kepada Potifar, katanya: "Hamba orang Ibrani yang kaubawa ke mari itu datang kepadaku untuk mempermainkan aku.
And she spoke to him according to these words, saying, The Hebrew servant, whom thou have brought to us, came in to me to mock me.
18 Tetapi ketika aku berteriak sekeras-kerasnya, ditinggalkannya bajunya padaku, lalu ia lari ke luar."
And it came to pass, as I lifted up my voice and cried, that he left his garment by me, and fled out.
19 Baru saja didengar oleh tuannya perkataan yang diceritakan isterinya kepadanya: begini begitulah aku diperlakukan oleh hambamu itu, maka bangkitlah amarahnya.
And it came to pass, when his master heard the words of his wife, which she spoke to him, saying, After this manner did thy servant to me, that his wrath was kindled.
20 Lalu Yusuf ditangkap oleh tuannya dan dimasukkan ke dalam penjara, tempat tahanan-tahanan raja dikurung. Demikianlah Yusuf dipenjarakan di sana.
And Joseph's master took him, and put him into the prison, the place where the king's prisoners were bound. And he was there in the prison.
21 Tetapi TUHAN menyertai Yusuf dan melimpahkan kasih setia-Nya kepadanya, dan membuat Yusuf kesayangan bagi kepala penjara itu.
But Jehovah was with Joseph, and showed kindness to him, and gave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison.
22 Sebab itu kepala penjara mempercayakan semua tahanan dalam penjara itu kepada Yusuf, dan segala pekerjaan yang harus dilakukan di situ, dialah yang mengurusnya.
And the keeper of the prison committed to Joseph's hand all the prisoners who were in the prison. And whatever they did there, he was the doer of it.
23 Dan kepala penjara tidak mencampuri segala yang dipercayakannya kepada Yusuf, karena TUHAN menyertai dia dan apa yang dikerjakannya dibuat TUHAN berhasil.
The keeper of the prison did not look to anything that was under his hand, because Jehovah was with him, and that which he did, Jehovah made it prosper.
